Genotype determines the rh phenotype. The two alleles for rh factor are rh+ (rh positive) and rh- (rh negative). The rh+ allele is dominant.

How do you determine a phenotype when the genotype is different but the phenotype is the same?

You look at the offspring. Offspring of a heterogenous match are going to have different phenotype percentages than those of a homogenous match.


When can you accurately determine a person's genotype from their phenotype?

Yes you can accurately determine an organisms genotype by observing it's phenotype, however some phenotypic traits resulting from homozygous or heterozygous combinations of alleles, may make the prediction impossible.


What is the ratio of kernel phenotype in this case?

Without specific details, it is impossible to determine the exact ratio of kernel phenotype. However, the ratio can be calculated by assessing the number of kernels with different phenotypes and then comparing them. Each phenotype's frequency divided by the total number of kernels will determine the ratio.


How do you get the genotype of the phenotype?

It isn't possible to find a phenotype. This is because the phenotype is the expression of the genotype. The genotype contains the genetic information for the phenotype, but does not show any physical information. The phenotype expresses the genotype in a physical and physiological way, so that what you actually see, is the phenotype. Take blood type for example: Genotypically it is just the genetic code of AGCTCTAGTCC (lets say), but Phenotypically it is Type A In short, the phenotype is what you see and the genotype is coding for it.


If you are Rh plus can you know your genotype for sure?

Knowing your blood type (Rh positive or negative) does not determine your genotype with 100% certainty. Specific genotyping tests are needed to determine the exact genetic makeup of the Rh factor (e.g., whether you are RhD positive or negative) in addition to your ABO blood type.

Does phenotype determine genotype?

It is a false statement that "phenotype determines genotype". In fact, it is the opposite. A genotype is the genetics or "instructions" that determine the phenotype. The phenotype is the actual appearance, ex: blue eyes, that is created by a given genotype.


Can an o negative mother and and A positive father produce and O negative child?

Yes. The father's phenotype is AO+*; the mother's is OO--.


Can you accurately determine an organisms genotype by observing it's phenotype?

No, genotype actually determines phenotype.


Can a mother with A positive blood type and a father with O positive blood type produce a child with 0 negative?

Yes this depends on type off parent alleles Rh- ,,,,,,, alleles are (Rh-Rh-) Rh+ ,,,,,, alleles are (Rh+Rh+) or ( Rh+Rh-) if mother is (Rh-Rh-) and father is (Rh+Rh+ ) there is no chance to have Rh- baby, here all will be Positive if mother is A+ (Rh+Rh+) and father is O+(Rh+Rh+) also here there is no chance to have Rh- baby, and all will be Positive if mother is A+ ( Rh+Rh-) and father is O+( Rh+Rh-) the may have a negative baby but with very low percentage that reaches to 25%

What is the best way to determine the phenotype of the feathers on a bird?

The best way to determine the phenotype of a bird's feathers is through visual observation, which includes noting color, pattern, and texture of the feathers. If needed, genetic testing can also be used to determine the underlying genetic basis of the phenotype.

Use the word phenotype in a sentence?

(In genetics, the phenotype is when genes combine to determine dominant traits.) "Researchers studied the phenotype of the mutated rats."

Is phenotype determine genotype false?

Yes, this is false. It's genotype that determines phenotype. e.g. If you have the dominant gene for brown eyes and the recessive gene for blue eyes (genotype) you will have brown eyes (phenotype)


What is the phenotype for YySs?

The phenotype for YySs would depend on the specific traits controlled by the Y and S genes. Without knowing the specific traits and their dominance or recessiveness, it is not possible to determine the exact phenotype. Each allele (Y and S) will contribute to the overall phenotype in conjunction with any other alleles present at the respective loci.
